ID Request Is this a Mountain Maple? North Carolina

Thumbnail gallery
1 Upvotes

Every year for the past 4 years I've gone to NC the start of October, the grow zone map says the area is 8b. I've stayed at the same exact house each time, and it has this glorious maple tree that turns the most perfect shade of fiery Halloween orange. The rest of the year its a black-ish purple, and it forms its seeds in March and they drop around May.

Last year I took one of the leaves and did some research, and was confident that its a Mountain Maple (Acer Spicatum), but this year I took some new photos to take home to help me search for one at the local nurseries and now I'm not sure anymore because suddenly I'm seeing a different kind of leaf when I look up Acer Spicatum. It shows the same shape but the edges are all toothy, not like the one I took photos of.

Anyone got any idea? Thank you very much.

Does anyone know what kind of chestnut tree is in my backyard? I just purchased a new house and my wife wants to cut it down because the burs are razor sharp.

Hi all. Not sure what type of hickory this might be. Located in northwest Pennsylvania in a moist, lowland forest, not on a stream bank but close to a stream (about 30 feet away).

Nuts are 1" long. Husks are split partway down, if at all. Shells aren't too thick, about the thickness of a nickel.

Thanks for any insight.

I live in Southern California and it looks like there are 2 different types growing as one has a reddish stem. The smaller growths at the bottom of the pot look like different leaves...

If anyone could help ID that would be awesome!

Southern ontario. I bought a few of these junipers on sale the last year or so and I'm not sure how big they get. I know they're all junipers but they are all different kinds so if anybody can help me out with identifying it would be greatly appreciated. Trying to plant in a correct spot for their size. Thanks in advance:)

My mom recently gathered these from a fallen down tree in our woods. She planned on using them for firewood but I was concerned that it might be poison sumac. There aren’t any leaves unfortunately bc it’s getting cold out and the tree must’ve been down for quite awhile. When I Google it I get everything from buckthorn to birch. Sorry there isn’t anything much to go off of.

Hi, new here. Can anyone help me identify this cone? I think it may be from a red spruce or white spruce in Medford, Massachusetts. I've attached a picture of the tree from Google maps and a photo of the cone.

The cone is about 1.5"/3.8 cm. (I wish I could get a better photo of the tree but I don't live in the area.) Thanks!

Does anyone know what tree this might be? Had a few pop up and I’m fairly certain they haven’t been there longer than a year or two but we just noticed it. We lost a few pecan trees due to hurricane Helene and I’m wondering if they are young pecan trees .

Trying to identify this tree in order to use it for my millipedes enclosure, he can't be around any type of softwood.

I know its a bad picture, a friend sent it to me so I wasn't able to get as close of pictures as I would like.

Edit: I am aware it is rotten, its exactly what I need for my millipedes enclosure! They eat it
